[Mailman-Users] Bug in 2.1.7, can't edit Public HTML pages & text files

[Christopher X. Candreva]

Mailman is telling me there is a bug whenever I try to submit a page from 
the "Edit the public HTML pages and text files" menu. The page returned 
says:

Bug in Mailman version 2.1.7

We're sorry, we hit a bug!

Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of 
traceback and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but 
the webmaster can find this information in the Mailman error logs. 

The most usefull thing I've found in the logs is:

Jan 10 15:52:55 2006 admin(6592): 
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

admin(6592): sys.version     =   2.4.2 (#1, Nov 11 2005, 14:28:34)

I would be surprised if I was the only person to try to submit a changed 
HTML/text page in 2.1.7, but I suppose it's possible. However I haven't 
found anything in a search, and check_perms tells me everything is OK.

Have I done something stupid, or is it a real bug and I should open a bug 
report ?
